Meet our first model, Izzy Israel! Izzy is a 26-year-old Trans Latinx Artist and Model that spent her youth between Kissimmee FL, Miami FL, and Mandeville Louisiana. She has been studying Visual Arts since the age of seven and got accepted to a magnet performing arts high school for Fine Art. Throughout her High school career, she experimented with other forms of art and found a love for Acting. At the ripe age of seventeen, she moved to New York City where she would attend Parsons the New School for Design and double major in Communication and Accessory Design. Soon after acquiring her BFA, she landed her first big-time job at Coach as an accessory designer and since then has designed for many other companies such as The Row and Madewell all the while embarking on a journey of acceptance and self-discovery. She quickly found that a corporate lifestyle did not fulfill her and decided to continue to pursue her Performing Arts Dreams. She soon after was scouted via social media and began her modeling/acting career all the while painting and doing graphic design work. She hopes to one day to be an inspiration to other young Trans and Cis women of color. Follow Izzy on Instagram @izzyizriale
